вероятно надо смотреть в сторону CR Java SDK

http://support.businessobjects.com/communityCS/TechnicalPapers/cr9_java.pdf Java SDK Architecture
The Java SDK is comprised of a number of Java classes representing a Crystal Report. These classes,
packaged in a JAR file, can be used in full J2EE-based web applications using popular Java application servers
and Java development environments. The SDK is modeled to be intuitive to any Java developer using as many
standard Java conventions, concepts and classes as possible. Capabilities of the SDK include creating reports
on the fly, opening existing reports, adding and removing sections, fields, charts, and many other report
elements, manipulating report parameters and formulas, and applying design templates to produce richly
formatted reports.
In web-based applications, the SDK resides on the application server, however all processing is delegated off to
the Report Application Server to process. This Server can reside on the application server, but can also be
offloaded to a dedicated report processing server. This lessens the load on the application server and increases
the overall performance of the web application.
Tight Integration with J2EE
With Crystal Reports 9, Java developers can enjoy tight integration with J2EE. The SDK is fully supported for
use in Java Server Pages (JSP), Servlets, and Enterprise Java Beans (EJBs). Popular Java application servers
such as IBM WebSphere Application Server and BEA WegLogic Server are supported. Documentation comes in
the standard “JavaDoc” format and various JSP samples will serve as a starting point for enterprise web
developers.
